Abstract:The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) has effectively utilized its pavement management system (PMS) to make informed, data-driven pavement maintenance decisions, including project selection, project prioritization, and funding allocation. Currently, due to funding shortages and the increasing reconstruction needs of its aging road network, GDOT is seeking to enhance its life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) in pavement design to make the best investment in the pavements. A key question to address in conducting a reliable LCCA in pavement design is how long the pavements last. This question can be addressed by analyzing pavement condition data in the PMS. A previous study, entitled “Improving GDOT’s Highway Pavement Preservation,” analyzed the service life of asphalt pavements in Georgia. The objective of this project is to study the longevity of concrete pavements in Georgia using historical concrete pavement condition data. Also, this study provides a better understanding of the actual performance of various designs of concrete pavement.
